It is to bad the video is in French, so one could get a sense of the patter of that time period. See David Charvet's new book on the life of Email Jarrow, it is a easy read and very enlightening. I find it interesting that the famous Emil Jarrow ended his act for 40 years with the "Eggs Tra Ordinary" stunt as sold by Abbott's. I don't get throwing the torn pieces of newspaper, maybe it made sense with what he was saying. I had to watch the Color changing Tie several times as the misdirection was so strong for the this trick. Other things as the use of Flash Paper, Candles from Pocket, Vanishing and Appearing Bow Tie, and Color Changing Bow Tie that we all thought was new to magic. He uses only 3 eggs and no water in the glasses. This finale of a version of "Eggs Tra Ordinary" as Abbott's call it. The dollar bill production, looks like the one out of the Tarbell Course.

There is some interesting tricks to take note (not pun intended)of in this act. So it must be from transferred from film. This video is a performance in France, don't know if this was television, as television was only invented a few years earlier here in the U.S. I guess it took some time to find out who he was at the time. I still remember reading of his death in Genii Magazine, saying they found him in his hotel room in Paris, France, sitting in a chair. It is very interesting to see him in a totally different club act as Pier Cartier, with some humor associated with it. There was a combined hard cover book of these three acts, but it has been out of print since the 1960's. I and most will recognize his name from the three publications Rice's Silk King Studio has published his Famous Nite Club Act, consisting of Silks Supreme, Rope Royal, and Celebrated Cigarettes booklets. I ran across this video of Keith Clark on YouTube.
